I already needed to do a radiator clean, figured while the bumper was off I might as well replace my chewed up OEM one.

Planning on be doing the same install approach as gbarron, drilling additional holes in the DNS lip to use new OEM fasteners.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Anyone know of any aftermarket company that makes this front lip on the aerokit front bumper? I see the oem ones are going for like $600 for a plastic piece.
Demonspeed for GT lips, Toth are a couple of good options for non OE. Toth has a .1 for $500 or so.
I found .1 OE lips for under $475. Still robbery, but…

This is what I bought for $129.90 on 4/14/21. We are getting screwed with these prices lately lol.

Welcome to my headache.
99 C2 w/Aero kit, what front splitter options and rear side skirts? - Page 4 - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums
I ordered one from demonspeed years ago and ended up giving it to my buddy with a 996.2. I didn't want to drill holes in my bumper. Plus, it looks way different. I want the factory 996.1 GT3 splitter without spending 500 bucks. Not to be cheap, its just stupid for a little piece of plastic. I thought 140 bucks was expensive for it back when I first bought one.
It's not even a nice piece, it's just ****ty plastic. This isn't a Porsche tax either this is straight up price gouging us. I thought it was over priced at $130 when I bought it lol, I came from BMWs and figured that $130 WAS the Porsche tax because this is a $70 piece of plastic.
Agreed. I've asked demonspeed to make the 996.1 GT3 splitter for a while now, but its actually Joe Toth that makes them. I don't think they believe its profitable to make them. Maybe it isn't. I'm not a businessman. I just know that there are certainly people interested in them if the price isn't insane. My current one isn't too bad, but it does have some chunks missing. I will probably just try to repair it at some point, but I'm bound to hit it again being fairly low.
Out of stock� I wonder if it�ll ever come back? FWIW� I bought their 996 rear �ducktail� spoiler and am very happy with it�I think they�re a good company.
@dporto
I emailed them 2 days ago, heard back immediately. They're going to let me know when the new batch arrives. They are aware of the rennlist shoutout and increased interest anyway.
Went back to see if they were in stock -- saw two were available and picked one up! I already needed to do a radiator clean, figured while the bumper was off I might as well replace my chewed up OEM one. Planning on be doing the same install approach as gbarron, drilling additional holes in the DNS lip to use new OEM fasteners.
All that to say, they seem to be producing new batches frequently enough!

I'm not sure where it will end, but I'm giving it my best shot.
